This single-storey detached bungalow sits a short walk from Wisbech town centre, offering practical, low‑maintenance living for someone looking to downsize. The property is freehold, has a single garage and a compact rear garden that’s easy to manage. Recent refitted kitchen and bathroom fittings mean much of the interior is move‑in ready.
The double bedroom has fitted wardrobes and the lounge is a generous size for a one‑bed home, but note the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and shows mid‑century design cues: low ceilings and a flat roof. Heating is by electric room heaters, so running costs and comfort will differ from modern central heating systems. Glazing is double but install date is unknown.
Location is a major benefit for convenience — shops, services and good local schools are all close — but there are important local-area considerations: the neighbourhood is classed as very deprived with very high local crime rates, and the property sits in a medium flood‑risk zone. Buyers should commission appropriate surveys (roof, electrical, flood risk and security) and factor potential insurance or retrofit costs into their budget.
For downsizers or buyers prioritising location and low‑upkeep living, this bungalow offers straightforward accommodation and a garage at an affordable price. It will particularly suit someone prepared to accept some dated elements and to invest in targeted improvements if they want modern heating, roof works or enhanced security and flood resilience.
